#BookADay: PLEASE, LOUISE! by Frieda Wishinsky and Marie-Louise Gay

#BookADay: PLEASE, LOUISE! , written by Frieda Wishinsky and
illustrated by Marie-Louise Gay (Groundwood Books/House Of Anansi,
2007). Adorable and hilarious. And I so love the energy in
Marie-Louise's illustrations!

Synopsis: "Louise is an irresistible force, determined to be as
close to her brother as she possibly can. Jake tries everything he can
think of to make her leave him alone, but she refuses to go away. When
Jake, in desperation, wishes Louise were a dog, he is suddenly faced
with a terrifying dilemma. Louise is gone and a little dog seems to
have taken her place. Can his wish have come true? This evocative
picture book, by renowned author Frieda Wishinsky and acclaimed
illustrator Marie-Louise Gay, is ideal to read aloud and shares a
witty and poignant lesson about siblings."
